But I've been running this server for a good number of years. It supports four users (all family) for email and I run some low volume mailing lists (with Mailman). It uses a Macintosh that would be running here anyway. Buying a "real" Unix system is not going to happen. For the most part, it just runs. If I reach a point I can no longer run it effectively, I outsource the mail and drop the mailing lists. -- Larry Stone lston...@stonejongleux.com http://www.stonejongleux.com/
